We are excited to announce our partnership with Remita to make Federal Government bill payments available to all Paga customers!

About The Partnership

The first phase of the collaboration would empower our customers to easily initiate and complete payment to all Remita billers and merchants right from Paga’s web channel — paga.com or agent network. This means that our agents across the country would also be able to process end-to-end payments for customers on Paga’s agent platform.

The partnership will chart the path for deeper collaboration within the fintech ecosystem, making electronic payments more attractive and less stressful for customers.

The Purpose of The Partnership

Jay Alabraba, Co-founder and Director of Business Development, Paga

“In our commitment to make payments easier for all Nigerians and businesses, we are pleased to collaborate with SystemSpecs. Our goal is to always provide an improved experience to our customers everywhere, by leveraging digital technology. This collaboration would further help us meet the needs of individuals who seek to make various bill payments, including those in emerging markets.”

Ezinne Obikile, SystemSpecs’ Executive Director, Infrastructure and Payment Gateway.

“At SystemSpecs, we are committed to driving financial inclusion and providing convenience to customers everywhere, especially through strategic partnerships with key industry stakeholders that would facilitate easier access to a wide range of financial services and solutions from anywhere and at any time.”

What It Means For You

The immediate impact of the collaboration is that everyone can easily generate Remita’s Retrieval Reference (RRR), make payments into the federal government’s Treasury Single Account, as well as payment to State Governments and Tertiary institutions on Remita via Paga’s consumer and Agent outlet channels.
